Well , you should read cooker or at least the archive. There
where a lot of problems that some testers experienced with his
first 2.6.0, and now 2.6.1 efforts (latest is 2.6.1-3tmb). They
are considered better than the regular cooker 2.6.x's tho. I'm
also reading on both cooker and lkml that 2.6.1 is unstable, even
more so than 2.6.0. Look here for the changelog
http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/ChangeLog-2.6.1
IMO, 2.6.x won't be ready for (newbie) user or enterprise
service until late next summer. I hope I'm wrong, but I suspect
I'm not. I believe Mandrake should wait til 10.1, not 10.0 to
introduce this drastically new and differnent kernel. Still, in
the meantime, sombody needs to be testin it. Guess that's us ;)
